Ok, a little summary of the situation:

System: ATI Radeon 9200se - agp8X, 64 bits, 128Mb, on Linux 2.6.7, mb asus=
=20
a7v8x-x, (via kt400) - Athlon XP 2600 (FSB 333), 512Mb DDR333.
Driver: dri cvs built on October 5, 2004, according to the wiki instruction=
s.

Results of *glxgears*:
bpp 16, 1024x768: from 400 to 500 fps
bpp 24, 1024x768: 180 - 200 fps

*glxinfo*:
direct rendering *yes*
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R200 20030328 AGP 4x x86/MMX+/3DNow!+/SSE =
TCL
OpenGL version string: 1.3 *Mesa* *5.0.2*

*glxgears* *-info*:
GL Renderer: *Mesa* GLX *indirect*
GL_VERSION    =3D 1.2 (1.5 *Mesa* *6.1*)

Some doubts:

(a) Shouldn't the versions regarding the GL renderers be the same? (In a=20
Savage4 system I have access it is, in that case, "1.2 Mesa 6.1", build wit=
h=20
dri cvs from August 21, 2004...)

(b) Is it correct for the GL Renderer to be "Mesa GLX indirect"? (again, in=
=20
the Savage 4 system runing dri it is "Mesa DRI SAVAGE Linux_1.1.18"...)

(c) If it is incorrect, as I am supposing, would it be a building/linking=20
problem? If it is, should I try to remove Mesa from the original distributi=
on=20
*before* installing the dri drivers?

Any light on this?

Thank you all for the help!

Regards!
